Captain Marvel To Begin Filming February 2018

It was announced earlier this week that Marvel Studios had secured directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck to helm the Captain Marvel film, which will star Brie Larson as Carol Danvers. This was met with mixed response from film fans but in their announcement, Marvel said they chose the co-directing pair the job because of their “diverse body of work and ability and focus on character” which is exactly what Captain Marvel fans are looking for for her first solo outing on the big screen!

Now Kevin Feige has revealed during an interview with Collider that, “assuming everything stays on schedule”, ‘Captain Marvel’ will begin filming in February 2018, which is around the same time ‘Black Panther’ is releasing in cinemas. Feige has also confirmed during the ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2’ press junkets that ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ and the as-yet-untitled ‘Avengers 4’ will now film back-to-back, rather than simultaneously as was originally planned.

Hopefully the slate stays on schedule, despite some huge projects coming from the studio over the next couple of years. We can expect more casting announcements, plot details and such, much closer to the start of production. All we know so far is Fleck and Boden are directing and Larson is starring as Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel, that ought to tide us over and keep hopes high until more information is released!
